ABSTRACT:
In order to provide an awning or a tent adapted for easy, removable attachment onto a caravan (1) in a sealed fashion, it is known in the art to form the canvas of the awning with a beading along one edge thereof formed with a casing (19) enclosing a beading core (12) and by providing the caravan with a fixed, stationary, hollow profile (2) with a narrow, longitudinal slit so that the beading may be introduced from the end of the hollow profile (2).
In order to avoid the requirement of the attachment onto the caravan of fittings with anchoring eyelets for the tent ridge poles, the invention provides a method for attaching an anchoring bracket onto the canvas of the awning adjacent the beading edge so that the hollow profile is, in fact, used to support the poles (5). According to the method of the invention the anchoring bracket is attached by stitching or attachment through the two layers of canvas interconnected to form the casing (19) within a narrow, essentially linear zone (18) extending essentially parallel to the casing.
The invention also provides the anchoring bracket and an awning with anchoring brackets.
